En-Route/Approach & Tower Simulation System at the Spanish Centre (SENASA)
Indra experience
Indra has a full extensive experience in provision of turnkey ATM training solutions, providing APP/ACC and Tower simulation systems, either standing-alone or with a real ATM replica system in a back-up and contingency mode.
Indra has designed, developed and installed En-Route/Approach and Tower Simulation Systems in Europe, Latin America, Africa and Asia. Our experience includes all phases, from design to commissioning, as well as performing all developments and required Air Control Centre integrations when necessary.
Focused on its exhaustive didactical purposes, Indra’s En-Route/Approach and TWR simulation system provides simultaneously a multi-exercise and multi-level of difficulty environment, in which the students/controllers receive their evaluation reports automatically, including infringements and workload. Voice, data and 2D/3D-images are recorded, synchronized with given instructions, that will be analyzed during the exercises evaluation.
The Spanish Centre for Training of Air Traffic Controllers (SENASA) is a worldwide reference of integration of Indra’s Simulators in a “Total Training Solution”.
Since SENASA centre was born in 1990, Indra has been continuously updating its systems and functionalities. Nowadays, this centre contains three Enroute/Approach ATC simulators, six control tower simulators with 180º (three with 360º) environment, and CBT and Brief/Debriefing Rooms. More that one hundred students can simultaneously practice in different positions.

Advanced Training for Controllers
Indra’s En-Route/Approach & TWR Simulator provides a total training for 2D/3D-TWR/APP/ACC controllers in a multi session and multi-exercise system. Its mission is to enhance basic and advanced training of TWR/APP/ACC controllers, providing information of air/ground movements from radars, flight plans, air-ground data link capabilities, directional finders, external centres coordination, meteorological and aeronautical information and with 3D images of air/ground movements on aerodrome visual scene.
Two simultaneous training types• Stand-alone complete training: Simulated
TWR/APP/ACC controller positions, pilot positions, traffic generator and 3D-TWR visual system
• Advanced training using the replica of a real ATM system: Real APP/ACC controller positions and real data processing servers connected to simulator system
Flexible and Homogeneous Architecture• Integrated and scaled COTS based architecture• Total system matching technical,
operative and functional requirements• HMIs under Motif and X-Windows standards• Control, supervision, exercise preparation
and evaluation, design, management and maintenance functions

APP/ACC Simulator
The En-Route/Approach Control Simulator is an exact reproduction of the environment found in an ATM Control Centre, with configurable student positions, totally equipped with all elements and devices used in real operations.
Each APP/ACC Control Working Position equipped with:Radar/ADS display screen and CPDLC messages display screen, computer with keyboard and mouse. One strip printer is associated to radar controller.
Voice Communication System (Radio, telephone, Intercom) with HMI based on a “touch” monitor.

Meteo & Lighting Monitoring Display
The Tower Simulator developed by Indra is designed as a complete reproduction of a real Airport Control Tower, displaying both 2D and 3D visual environments.
Student positions are equipped with all the monitors, elements and devices as those found in a real control tower room, set in a virtual environment by means of a 180-360 degree visual system, which allows a total reproduction of operating conditions found in a real airport tower.
Movement Management: target, aircraft and ground vehicles are managed automatically (by ATG) or by pilot positions. Easy manage of large quantity of targets and abnormal situations (fine, engine/smoke effects, landing gear malfunctions, turning on/off aircraft position lights...).
